2011 Dead League Draft

The draft for the 2011 dead league was completed last night so pay attention as I will be posting the new rosters in one post. When we get to 2011 each team page will get updated to the new rosters.

Sorry Miss Edwards

So as we have not posted in something like 300 days, don't call it a comeback. Over the next few days I'm going to update all the scoring and next week is our live draft. There maybe some new teams, some new faces and definitely some new stiffs in the new year. Keep your eyes and browsers glues to Dead League or else...

Some House Cleaning and Corey Haim

So that just happened like a week ago, and I can't believe he was undrafted. How does no one take a washed up child actor with a drug problem? And what was the money line on which Corey would die first? +350? More? Anyway Corey Haim would have been huge points so everyone should be kicking themselves.
Other Deaths in the month of February include;
John Murtha
Phil Harris (deadliest Catch)
Charlie Wilson (of the movie)
T bone Wolk
and several others...happy trails my friends

Scoring Correction

It has been brought to my attention that Maggie Renfro was scored incorrectly. After the death of JD Salinger, Davey Bones' Locker should have been credited with the requisite points for a blood bath score with Salinger & Renfro in one week. Scoring will be corrected to reflect this change.

Thanks,
Managment

Is it Funnier or Sadder when a Little Person Dies?

I say funnier but half as sad. So long to Poltergeist star Zelda Rubinstein who bit the big one at age 76. She pulls in a nice haul of 44 points for age plus a blood bath bonus for Corpses' Bride nice pick up. Also, Living in oblivion will get the added blood bath bonus as well. This passing also begs the question, how many people named Zelda have ever been eligible for drafting in the Dead League? Special shout out to anyone who can provide the answer...

Catcher & the Rye's Cheese Death Sceen

Reclusive JD Salinger is dead at 91, he is survived by his son and was drafted in the 14th Round by Living in Oblivion. It was a default pick so I can't say nice pick about this one. However you know something is wrong with a person when the most recent photo of them is from the 1950's. So his life was weird but his death was lame, natural causes according to the son, I think the author of a great literary work could have come up with a better end to the story, but that is just me.

Maggie Renfro Meets her maker...

Maggie Renfro, one of the oldest people in the world died. She was 114 years old and worth 6 points. Congrats to Davy Bones' Locker on the pick, but your going to need alot more deaths to try and win this thing.
